FRIDAY 17th JUNE 2016 MY GIRL THE RIVER + STEPH SCOTT

My Girl The River offer up their blend of Americana, folk, roots and alt-country. Kris Wilkinson Hughes, a Louisiana native, brings her sultry southern voice to tell anecdotes, half-truths, fables and lies.

Their new album 'This Ain't No Fairytale' is released this spring and within in Kris and English bassist Joe Hughes, have created a gorgeous collection of songs, showing a depth of range and storytelling that only some artists get to experience and some music lovers get to enjoy.

Ranging from alt-country and folk to Americana and roots, it ticks every box. It was recorded in the front room of Kris and Joe's house in November 2015 and mixed by John Garden, produced by Kris, mastered by Mick Conley (Suzy Bogguss, Kathy Mattea, Marty Stuart), with art direction by James Marsh (Talk Talk).

My Girl the River come to Forest Folk and Roots as part of their national tour to support the release of the album - including a slot at the legendary Isle of Wight Festival !!
